Ok, this weekend I'll snap a few.
I followed you bro's recommendation for the fixtures, since my sitting position is smack wall to wall. "sofa at one wall and screen on the other"
I placed 4 sheets behind my front speakers and 2 pcs behind my sofa. I'm able to push back my front speaker nearer to the wall and clear the walk way.
Bass if much fuller and tight. no more loose and messy. Clarity from the horns are so clear and soothing, unlike before where it tends to irritate.
Yep, you're correct about the echo problems .. reflections of sound create a delay and turns out compressed. Layering is ok ok .. maybe i need a better player and source.

Oops, O/T liao...

My only new toy is RM375 WDTV niah...very paiseh...

Those are real expensive for surrounds!

I believe those patches are part of the acoustic treatment.

I too prefer a minimalist style, but unfortunately if you want proper acoustic treatment those absorbers/diffusers/traps will start to intrude into the minimalism. I guess we can ameliorate that by color matching, like in this picture you showed earlier (the acoustic panels are color blended with the room):
